Author's comments:
Unico ejemplar observado en esta epoca.Hasta la primavera se observaron mas ejemplares pero ya emigraron.El lugar exacto,tal vez complicado de decir, pero es lugar de descarga de aguas servidas no debidamente tratadas y lugar de reunion de abundante cantidad de otras aves marinas.
